some respect to the moral quality OF its
acts, and was not governed By the law
OF political expediency which for half
century had been the sole law Of demo-
cratic action.
Since when, then, has the democratic
party changed its spots and assumed to
be governed by moral sense? Has 1t
been under the Cleveland regimeG II
so, what particular changes have his
election and administration wrought in
the moral consciousness of the demo-
cratic party. aud by what special min
istries OF conversion has the sslutsry
change been wrought? Was IL by ac-
ceptIng as manly, endorsing rs clean,
voting for as worthy, and bllndly fol-
lowing as wise man whose life, up TO
his assumption Of the gOvernOrsbip OF
New York, was a denial OF all moral
obligations? Was 1t by governmental
acts denying the means of existence to
the famisheo families of the loyal SOL
dleYe Of the nation that the democratic
party has risen to an appreciation OF the
value OF moral ideas as political fsotorsF
Was 1t by an attempt to level all dis
tinctiOns between 10y atty and disloyaIty,
treason and patriotic devotion to this re-
public that this ministry OF moral sense
WAS made eflectual in democratic
breasts? Was 1t by persistent insults to
loyal men, by recognition Of the claims
OF dislOyal records rs paramount to all
Others In securing place In public serv"
Ice? Was il by denial OF all pledges
for civil service reform; by fslsifying
every promise made before his election;
by tamely permitting every conceivable
Insult to be offered our people on this
continent, WAS it by such means and
ministries that the moral consciousness
OF he nation has been raised above re.
publican standard? The .POst-Dspatch
represents man and party by whom
moral ideas have heretofore been stig-
mstized AS out of place In political ac-
ton, and who have ever illustrated their
teachings by their practice. In assum-
ing its new role the p. ID. is getting out
Of Its depth.

CHOKING CATARRH.

Have you awakened from n disturbed sleep
with all the horrible sensations of an assassin
cutchng your throat and pressing the Ii e.
breath from your frightened chestl Have you
noticed the languOr and debility that succeed
the effort TO clear your throat and head of
this catarrhal matter? What depressing in
fluence it eXerts upon the mind, clOuding the
memory and filling the head with pains and
strange noises! How difficult it is to rid the
nasal passages, throat and lungs of this poi
sonOus mucus all can testify who are afflicted
with catarrh. How difficult to protect the
system against its further progress tow ards
the lungs, liver and kidneys all physicians
will admit. 1t is terrible disease, and cries
out for relief and cure.
The remarkable curative powers, when all
other remedies utterly fail, of SANFORD's
RADICAL CURE, are attestCd by thousands who
gratefully recommend it to felOw-sutferers.
No statement is made regarding it that cannot
be substantiated by the most respectable and
reliable references.
Each packet contains one bottle of the RAD
ICAL CURE, one box CATARRHAL SOLVENT,
and an IMPROVED INHALER, with treatise and
directions, and is sold by all druggists for 81.

THAT HOTEL PROJECT.

THAT HOTEL PROJECT.
AS will be seen by reference to the
local columns OF the LIGHT, mass
meeting has been called for Thursday
evening at 8 o'clock, to take steps towards
the erection OF hotel for invalids In
some suitable locality In this city. 1t Is
most devoutly to be wished that this
meeting should be well attended. There
Is nothing more necessary to the after
work of the committee, as projected 10
the material improvement of this city
and the enlargement OF all its industrial
work, than that there should be imme-
diately erected hotel specially design
ed and managed for the accOmmOda-
as invslids to escape the Vigor OF severe
winter climates, and secure the benefit
of the unequalIed health giving proper
tiles Of this section. Such hotel would
demonstrate the feasibility of larger en-
terprises more purely sanitarian
than even this, and so would pave the
way for sIch institutions as have drawn
10 Jacksonville and ST. Augustine, in
Florida, from twenty-fOur thousand to
one hundred thousand visitors and win
ter residents annually. Such hotel
will pay. 1t will pay in itself. There
will be no doubt about its
making good Investment for
those who put their money
into it, as was stated last night in the
conference held. This hotel project IL
the initiatOry work. Out OF it VIII grow
more and more fruitful results than any
one can at present conjecture. Thir hotel
will bring to the city for days, weeks
and months just the men that are likely
to make permanent investments here.
Men Of capital, whose impaired health
under conditions Of unfavOrable climates
has about decided them, most reluctant
Iy, to abandon business life. Finding,
as scores OF others have done, that their
health is here restored, their mental and
physical vigOr returned, they will grow
restless for employment and finding
ptOHthDlt hNouucb lOE lHe tlDplOg lHent
OF their means and business talents they
will put them at work here. A good in
yaIid's hotel is recognized as stepping
stone to nearly all else that Ia needed
here, and has been for years by those
VINO have studied the situation. By
this means those industrial enterprises,
from which this city would reap so
large advantage, will be most certainly
brought within our reach. 1t is most de-
vourly to be wished that this meeting
called for Thursday night will be well
attended by our capitalists, land owners
and merchants and that the result will
be the immediate erection OF a building
for the purposes required.

POLITICAL MORAL SENSE.

The diptheria which is prevailing In
St. Louis has not affected the weasand
of the Post Dispatch Of that city. The
z. D., Particularly DIabolical, In a
recent issue says lit Ia to cast a slur
upon the moral sense Of the nation to
say that Foraker can ever become for
midable candidate for the presidency.
His chance OF getting the republican
nomination is different thing altogeth-
err" This merely sffirms, In somewhat
different terms, that the moral sense Of
this national, as distinct from the moral
OF the republican party, ia much more
pure, elevated and instructed. 1t is an
affirmation that an act which would
east slur upon the moral sense OF the
nation would not cast any slur upon
the moral sense of the republican party.
Now, as this nation, politically consid-
cred. is composed practically OF the re-
publican and democratic parties-this
assertion of the Z. ID. simmered down
really means that that which would
cast a slur upon the moral sense of the
democratic party, would have no such
eflec; upon the republican party-the
inference Of course being that republic
cas- moral sense was blunted by COM
parisOn.
In former years 1t was the democratic
habi to call the republican party, "the
party Of great moral ideas" because In
its treatment OF political questions and
10 It's conduct Of national affairs it had

THE council were in happy frame of
mind yesterday. No petitions were re-
fused, several were granted, and a large
number referred, and all reports OF COM
mittees were adopted rs presented.
The theatrical attractions secured for
San Antonio this year speak very flatter-
ingly for the opera house management.
The list covers the ground most etfectu-
ally and presents an array OF talent
never before Appropriated In this state.
That this very liberal attempt to give
San AntOnians a theatrical season not
one whit behind the cities OF her class
IN the regular circuit Of such attractions
will be appreciated by our citizens,
there Ia not a shadow OF a doubt.

Don't Laugh at Nervous People.

Their sutferings are very real, although you,
with your vigorous physique and strong
nerves, can scarcely believe it. Rather sug-
gest the use of HOstetters Stomach Bitters
which, in removing every trace Of dyspepsia,
and regulating the liver and bowels, strikes ut
and eXtirpates the most prolific cause of
chronic nervous trouble. That nerYe-shatter-
ing disease, fever and ague, is among the for
midable ailments, to the removal of W hich this
genial remedy is specially adapted. Nervous
prostratiOn, resulting from prolonged mental
or physical effort, is also a state of the system
where the intervention of this tonic is very
desirable, more particularly as its use is TO
quiet and relax the tension of ovCrwrOught
nerves. The Bitters are invaluable in rheu-
matism, neuralgia and kidney troubles. EN-
plOy no substitute for il. g-IBt
